I finally found some more YO-YO loach i had another two for th other tank mate i already had. But at the same time i spotted some Botia's so i couldn't resist, so had four of them and they are so cute, nut only about half an inch.

Ooops. Bad news. Start watching other fish for damage.

No, they stay active and are quite agressive, too. Small fish, big fish, they don't care. Feisty little buggers.

Oh! impulse purchase's

It's always safer to do a little research, then return to store if all is clear.

I have read a little bit but just not in deep enough yet. Is was a once delivery for the LFS as they came to the store by mistake so i couldn't let them go. plus they're so cute. Just can't believe how lively they are.

They MAY be ok with the yoyos but I wouldn't put any peaceful schooling fish in with them, or slow long finned types either...and make sure you have hidey holes for the yoyos to run to when the skunks wear them out!

The Yo-Yo's are my other tank on there own with Tiger Barbs. The Botia's are in with my clowns, catfish and tinfoils
